Is YMCA offering Ike-related child care?

Is there any update on the YMCAs opening camps or other child care options until the schools open? Posted by: Cynthia at September 19, 2008 07:59 AM

Trazanna Moreno with the YMCA of Greater Houston said the organization cannot announce any citywide child-care programs related to Ike because its staff is scattered and the state requires certain ratios of staff to children to operate such programs. However, she said individual facilities are establishing child-care programs as they assemble enough staff to man them. For example, she said the Trotter Family YMCA at 1331 Augusta Drive has Camp Ike and the Huntsville Family YMCA, 291 Highway 75 N, has Camp Recovery. She suggested parents check with the YMCA facility in their neighborhood to see if it is able to provide an Ike-related child-care program.
